July 20th, 2018 - v1.15.4

• Getting reviews on your products is really powerful, so we made it easier for shoppers who click the 'leave a review' link in their purchase confirmation emails to leave them-they go straight to the form now, with no hunting, and no broken product pages!
• Product with non-required file uploads were a bit sticky on iOS devices, so we added some code to make it smooth as butter.
• Having the product image actually reflect the users selected choices is nice, so we did a little tinkering to make that happen nicely.
• The carousel was acting weird and overlapping the mobile menu when using the fade transition, and now it doesn't so people can navigate your store successfully again.
• Insecure fonts are no fun, so we've wrapped ours up in a blanket and let it know it's safe so it feels secure and won't cause any more console errors.

July 12th, 2018 - v1.15.3
